Edinburgh's just a city away from me, nice.
Hmm, that's tough, as I'm taking History and I love it, and right now we're doing Scottish History.
If you're interested in how Britain shaped the way it has become with it's rules and beginnings, Scottish history might interest you.
Politics is also interesting, however I haven't studied it as a subject to give an opinion.

I feel confident with my knowledge about the founding of Britain and such, though it would be interesting to delve deeper into it. But the politics aspect would probably let me get more opportunities later.

Oh hell yeah, but it's not nearly as bad as Nordic countries like Norway, but it's not been too bad so far this Winter.
I think you'll get used to it ^^ And I was just about to send you a friend request c:

It's always the risk posting a pony on the front page, stupid ignoramuses thinking looking at a picture of a pony slowly gives you a life-threatening illness.
I thank you kind sir/madam, with a thumb in return.
